The Asset Purchase Agreement with Earn Out Provision in Chicago is designed for transactions where a buyer wishes to acquire the assets of a seller's business. This form delineates the terms, including the assets included in the sale, any liabilities assumed by the buyer, the purchase price, and the payment structure. It features sections for detailing specific items such as equipment and inventory, along with assumptions of liabilities, representations and warranties, and covenants by both the seller and buyer. The form also incorporates a provision for an earn-out structure, allowing for additional compensation to the seller based on the performance of the acquired business after the closing of the transaction. This agreement is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in business transactions, as it provides clarity and structure for negotiations and closing processes. Users are guided to fill in relevant information, delete sections that do not apply, and modify the text to fit their specific facts. The agreement ensures mutual protections and obligations, aiming to facilitate a smoother transaction process.
